Social Enterprise Summit Scotland 2024

The Social Enterprise Scotland (SES) Summit is a three-day programme of events, from the 6th to the 8th of November.

This year’s agenda will focus on social enterprises’ contribution to delivering a well-being economy and will cover a diverse range of topics. Tickets are now available for a full day of sector-leading speakers, informative roundtable discussions, and significant networking opportunities.

This is a must-attend event for anyone looking to influence and participate in Scotland’s social enterprise sector. The summit provides a platform for key decision-makers, social enterprises, leaders, social entrepreneurs, public bodies, and support organisations to engage, share expertise, and network, all aimed at empowering positive narratives and fostering collaboration for sustainable social impact in Scotland.

On the 6th of November, SES will be hosting three community learning exchanges, offering a fully-funded focused learning experience. The Community Learning Exchanges (CLEs) are initially open to applications until Tuesday 1 October. Priority will be given to social enterprises, particularly those where travel costs are a barrier to attending. Travel, accommodation and subsistence will be funded up to a certain amount, please see the link below for more details on this.
